lifters with block change I am in the process of switching from a 305 roller cam block to a 350 roller cam block. I would like to save some money, so I know I can re-use roller lifters for a new cam if they are in good shape. My question is though can I use the roller lifters from the 305 block (and most fo the other roller related components) for the 350 block? |
They are the same .842" - They can be used in the 350 block. |
Sounds good to me. I'll try and measure them. Are you talking about the lifter diameter or the diameterof the lifter hole in the block? |
If they have some miles on them, I wouldn't use them. That's just me though. Like any moving part, it's going to wear. Ron |
Yes, you have a point but Roller hydraulic lifters have a much longer life then most other lifters. |
'Tibo' if you have to ask or defend, than replace :D universal rule of thumb. It would be different if they only had maybe 10,000 miles on them, but if they have 100,000!!! Ron |
do the roller bearings still roll smoothly? |
They roll smooth and have no visual cracks or chips. I still have to look at them with a pair of magnifiers. Ronterry, I I know ,you have a point. They have 70,000 miles on them so they should last a little longer. I have heard that many people still have their original roller cam drivetrain and they have 200,000+ miles on it. |
i think as long as the rollers operate smoothly and the pushrod seat can be pushed down and spring back it should be ok. |
